Eton Dorney

This view shows the finish line for the rowing events at Eton Dorney lake. The building at the end is the Eton College Rowing Centre. The boats, after being launched exit the lake to right to access the practice lake which runs parallel to the racecourse. This allows boats to reach the start line without impeding boats which are racing. The tall mast is the support for the tracking camera which follows the progress of the boats on the course.
